This is not directly related to the remote state setup, but it's another piece of configuration I realized is necessary for each developer to set up.

Ah of course this would be needed, that makes perfect sense. So then longer term for enabling others to just take the terraform config and run with it, maybe we should use some kind of templating/cookiecutter sort of approach?

Fixes #10
This PR configures terraform to read state data from a GCS bucket rather than a local file. I created a bucket called
invest_compute_terraform_statefor this purpose. The bucket itself is not defined in terraform because that would create a chicken-and-egg problem. I confirmed that I can now set up another terraform working directory and it will read the remote state and recognize the existing infrastructure. This will be critical for having multiple developers collaborate on the project.
